At Yoshinomachi-yakata ruin there are the remains of a moat with embankments. The site today is now fields and also a large residence which appears to be the rightful inheritor of the original medieval manor house, and this occupied most of my attention.

This would've been very easy to miss and I begun to wonder if I hadn't missed any other markers that day... This marker was the exact same shape as the other markers erected by Azumino Municipality, a sprawling rural municipality generously referred to as a "City" centered around the town of Toyoshina.
